Scattered across the Unknown Regions, specifically the Rra'kyse and Bap'du sectors north of Fi'ri'os.

Medusa star system during the Fall Back. Cadres are primarily from Tash'Var and an unusually large percentage of N'dras. There are specialist units from such Septs as Ke'lshan, T'olku, a Bork'an personal retinue for Ethereal An'he, and strike teams from Sa'cea.

Shas'Ar'O T'olku Sia'siral Doran'dak'e Ma'rawn "Calmsword"

Elements of the Great Task are on four different theaters. Rra'kyse the 'Shadow Belt' is a region of sparse stars but a concentration of migratory Ork clans and Human listening stations which Korst'la'kak has engaged, slowly drawing more and more Orks to come into conflict with human outposts. Bap'du sector was to be attacked during the high point of the 3rd Sphere when Ultramarine forces held back Shadowsun's advance. Now it is a war torn collection of human worlds, waiting for help from Medusa. It was deemed by Calmsword this region be fortified while the human populations driven, but not exterminated, from their own cities. This has resulted in a massive cry for help from the Imperial Governor's and has resulted in a massive redeployment of Astartes and Imperial Guard Regiments.

At the beginning stages of the 3rd Sphere Expansion, the D'yanoi Sept were in need of a specialized cadre, with skill without equal in infiltration and in operations behind enemy lines..and then Su'Yanoi'Var were born.

During the campaign on Medusa V, an experimental warp field technology test to send the 788th back to the Tau worlds went horribly wrong, while the Cadre did end up in the Damocles Gulf the corruption of the Chaos gods has warped the minds of the once loyal Tau warriors. After the cold blooded murder of the Etheral that was in command by Commander Blazing Sword, He now leads the damned force on bloody campaigns and skirmishes across the Gulf. A large section of the cadre have now taken to strapping Trophy Rack of the fallen to there battle suits and skimmers, but Commander Blazing Sword has chosen not to so that his position as commander is clear to all that oppose him, During one of Blazing swords bloody battles against the imperial guard the cadre was met by the broken cadre of the 781st, they have now joined Shas'O Ken'Shin in his crusade as they hunt the gulf for more that would join this damned cadre as they build strength they look to over through the Tau worlds and bring about the Mont'Au (the terror) and bring about a new age and a new race of Tau.

Hunter Crade formed recently, off of a much larger Crade, Nar'Kova, for the purpose of assisting the search for species willing to join the Empire in the name of the Greater Good.

The Cadre is a part of the Es'Doran expeditionary force and is currently engaged with Gue'la Space Marines (Ultramarines and Blood Angels) and Imperial Guard (5th Marnian Regiment). The Cadre is under close supervision of the Ethereal Caste, who are trying to find a way to properly use the Commander's hatred against the Gue'la for the purposes of Tau'Va. The Cadre specializes in defensive and hit and run raid tactics, usually boosting the defense lines of other Cadres where neccessary. Both sides are ferrying reinforcements to the planet and the campaign has come to a stalemate, despite daring raids of the Gue'la Space Marines.

Third Sphere. The ARCS Cadre is one of three currently operating under the Kvor'An'Kaschi (Golden Guard) Tio'Ve that uses Dricil as its base of Operations, and the only one (currently) that is cleared for off-world duties. The original members of the Golden Guard were hand picked the Ethereal Aun'Shi. When the aged warrior finally became too old and weak to take an active role in battle he beseeched the Aun'Va directly to grant him a favour. An assignment where he could still be amongst the caste he so loved and yet be permitted a retirement that didn't involve a violent death. In a move which proved that the Empire respects those who have given their best year in service of the greater good, he and his apprentices were placed in charge of the Dricil facility. The youngest of which is the current leader of the ARCS Cadre.

Aun'Vre T'au Kais'Shi Kauyon Mont'Yr (Vre'Kauyon). The youngest of Aun'Shi's apprentices. He has shown a penchant for leading from the front and is usually found amongst his troops in the very thick of the fighting. Has also adopted many unorthodox practices regarding the treatment of auxiliaries and the level of familiarity between him and his command staff. As much as the Aun'Ar'Tol frowns upon many of these practices, they are grudgingly forced to admit he gets results.

Full combat readiness. Scheduled for deployment on Las'Falla. As such Kauyon has doubled his cadre's usual training regimen.

##Lv. 6 Passkey Accepted. Decrypting Entry.##

When deployed on Las'Falla A.R.C.S. is to investigate the magnitude of the Ork threat and slow its advancement until a strike force can be assembled. Rumours of Gue'La Astartes activity in the area are also to be verified or debunked as applicable.

Recently we have attacked two strongholds that have been recently resupplied w/ Hive weaponary, which upon removal of the enemy we quickly destroyed per orders. We have taken little casualties and are resupplied via orca.

The TRC acts as a rapid insertion force making tactical assaults on the outer edge of the Hive Fleet weakening areas for future tau capacity.

Commander Darkcalm is a new Commander given the simple task of defending against the ork raids that are being launched upon the world of pech. Those ork ships that make it past the air caste are quickly tracked down and assaulted by darkcalm.

Deployed deep in the southern dead lands of Pech, a land scarred from war and Ork invaision, an Ork Waaagh has been gaining strength. Kai'Ui Xar'Vesa'Korst'La, having a reputation for swift and brutal strikes, was deployed to quell the uprising. When Shas'O He'Vior was slain in combat, leadership on T'au was prepared to send reinforcements, however recent analysis of Aun Doran'Ufa's guidance to keep the Cadre on mission, has proved extremely successful. Combat operations on Pech continue.

While returning to their barracks on T'au, Cadre Hellfire's Orca was badly damaged, forcing a crash-landing on Arthas Moloch. There, they rescued the already present Cadre Forestlight, who had suffered heavy casualties, from destruction by an Imperial Guard regiment. While they search for the object of the Imperium's interest on this world, the Cadres have fought off Eldar, Space Marine, and Necron forces, and Orks have been spotted appraoching from deep space. The Cadres are requesting reinforcements...ASAP!!!

761.M41. Founded by Commander Farsight. After defecting from the Empire and heavy losses aginst the Orks Farsight saw the need to recruit and train new units to protect the newly conquered worlds. Warspite grew up on vior'la and was promoted by Farsight to command the Cadre after serving in his bodyguard, although he does not follow the preference for hand to hand combat.

Commander Warspite

Active

Currently undertaking various hit and run missions against Imperial forces. The most recent engagementw were against a detachment of Space Wolves seeking to test the Tau defenses and an incursion of Orks.

Lacking Tau homeworld support and industrial capabilities the cadre is undertaking hit and run missions, rather than protracted campaigns against Imperial forces.

Following the Foundry Massacre, Shas'ka'ra T'suam was found responsible for the gutting of the Ksi'm'yen 343th ARC. She has been stripped of all formal rank name, declared a traitor, exiled. Unfortunately, she insists on continuing to stain the honor of our great Empire, demanding a Trial of Honor, as custom allows. Her continued defiance has brought many other ka'ra exiles out of hiding to join this disturbing crusade. Considering the enormity of their crimes, the entire force was tasked with destroying the heart of Hive Fleet Behemoth; a task many consider to be impossible - almost as impossible as Shas'ka'ra T'suam regaining her honor.

T'au Military Replenishment Depots

Reactivating at T'au after a succesfull but bloody campaign against Eldar pirates near the Sa'cea Sept where the Cadre's old Commanders, Shash'o Mont'kor perished. He was an able but grimm commander who led his forces against brutal alien fiends, struck them back but payed the ultimate price for it himself. The Cadre too had suffered an almost mortal blow with staggering 80% losses after the Slaughter of Kor'i'niv. Now the Cadre has been reactivated at it's birth world of T'tau. The Cadre has survived impossible odds and triumphed under countless consecutive Commanders. It's martial history is a source of pride, inspiration and tactical wisdom for all those who come to the Cadre.

At operational strength and conducting regular patrols of Gyu'ios's star system. Surveys of other planets underway. CAUTION! Merchant fleet at risk of interception by Human and Eldar privateers. Frequent delays in supply lines as a result.

Part of a larger contingent, dedicated to the defence of the newly founded sept of T'drios. This Cadre is dedicated to fighting the Tyranid menace in the sector. Other targets of the contingent include the Imperial Guard, The Orks and a group of renegade humans naming themselves "The cult of chronology"
